I spilled 7up on keyboard washed it thought everything was dry but a slight bit of moisture
remained shorting out the keyboard. I wouldn't believe the keyboard bit the dust wanted to re-install
software entered device manager and deleted the keyboard from device manager instead of running add new
hardware I ended up shutting down the PC. Now with no keyboard I can't access bios, advanced boot options,
administrator nothing but guest acct. avail. OS WinXP Pro, services disabled include workstation, any remote
access. Utilizing u-verse DSL, wireless available but wireless access service disabled, attempted to utilize
cell phone as the PC keyboard and it works except during reboot, logoff, or switching user. Willey Coyote
